Conditions of Approval: How to Draft Language That is Both Clear and Defensible - NHMA Law Lecture

Description:

Conditions of Approval: How to Draft Language That is Both
Clear and Defensible
All Planning Boards and Zoning Boards of Adjustment spend
considerable time and effort in the review of subdivisions, site
plans, or requests for an administrative appeal, special
exception or variance. At the end of the review, someone must
create the language that will record the vote of approval, and
impose various conditions on the applicants. This session will
provide pointers on these issues, as well as discuss recent
important cases from the US Supreme Court that talk about
how such conditions can cross the line and create illegal
"takings and exactions".
